*Benecol® Products contain plant stanols, which have been shown in clinical studies to lower cholesterol in as little as two weeks. Per the FDA, foods like Benecol® with at least 0.5g per serving of plant stanols eaten with meals or snacks for a daily total intake of 2g, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce blood total cholesterol and the risk of heart disease. One serving of Benecol® Buttery Spreads supplies 0.5g of plant stanols. One serving of chocolate Benecol® Soft Chews supplies 2g of plant stanols. Demonstrated in over 70 scientific peer-reviewed effectiveness studies worldwide, Benecol®'s key ingredient is derived from plants, and partially blocks absorption of cholesterol in the digestive tract/small intestine, thus reducing levels of LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream without disrupting HDL cholesterol. Just four tablespoons of buttery Benecol® Spread, or 4 chocolate Soft Chews a day, gives the 2 grams of plant stanols that can lower cholesterol in as little as 2 weeks.
